We stayed for 4 nights and really enjoyed the authentic experience of living in Chinatown.
The only caveat of this place (but Pupe is very clear about that in her description) are the stairs: the place is in total on three levels (downstairs the bar, first floor the living room and the bathroom, second floor another living room, the bedroom and the balcony. Between each level there are pretty narrow and steep stairs (the last step towards the second floor is knee high). This is nothing a normally healthy adult can't manage but you should be aware of it.
Our main pro's of this place:
- authentic flair & style
- balcony
- location: walking distance to Chinatown and the train station (= also the metro connecting to the sky train).
- kind and helpful hosts (also helped us with our luggage getting up and down the stairs)
Summary: Recommended! Carefully read Pupe's description of the place & manage your expectation according - then you will love & enjoy it as much as we did
